Hello to the Parents of Hogwarts' Class of 2025,​Thanks for sending your adorable little Muggles off so well prepared for the start of school. We've had a productive couple of days. So far we've done a little bit of math, a little bit of reading, and a little bit of writing. We've sprinkled the magic in here and there too! Science and social studies instruction will begin next week.

Generally, I will try to publish a new blog on the website monthly to update you on classroom happenings. I'll usually email to tell you that I've updated the page once I've published a blog. If you're on Twitter, feel free to follow me there too as I'll often tweet out exciting things happening in class. My handle is: @MarieMcMB . Warning: I'm a self-proclaimed math geek so I tweet out about math quite a bit too.

I'm looking forward to meeting you all at open house on the 15th. Please don't hesitate to call or email should you have questions or concerns before then.
